Retrieving Installed Software Info from Registry

When you go into Control Panel and open 'Add/Remove Programs' the installed
software information listed in this window is contained in the registry.
How can I programmatically retrieve this information? I am attempting to
write a quick app that runs on startup that retrieves all installed software
and writes it to my server. That way, I can monitor illegal software within
our facility. I am using VB6.
